I introduced a motion to subpoena the Epstein files. We got the votes. Today, we got the subpoena. The DOJ has 2 weeks to release the Epstein files to the Oversight Committee. Justice must apply to everyone, no matter how rich, powerful, or well-connected they are.

The Louisiana Superintendant claims to support cuts to the Department of Education but just admitted that his state relies on that very same funding to improve math and reading scores. You're telling me these are the people who are supposed to care for our kids?

Last week, the anti-worker authoritarian-in-chief screwed over thousands of federal workers with an order ripping away their collective bargaining rights. Workers deserve better than this betrayal.

President Trump’s decision to issue a Labor Day proclamation shortly after stripping union rights from thousands of civil servants, a third of whom are veterans, should show American workers what he really thinks about them.

Today we heard from some of the women and girls who survived Epstein’s abuse. It is clear the government has failed these survivors. Now it’s our responsibility to deliver justice and the peace and healing they deserve. We need the full files and accountability now.

Today, @OversightDems are meeting with survivors and victims of Epstein's abuse. While Trump and his admin continue to protect billionaires and the ultra-wealthy, we have to remember and continue to center the very real people who have been harmed by this corruption and abuse.

It's well past time that we empower our unions and let workers govern themselves. We need democratic unions for all. Proud to introduce the Union Participation for All Act to put power back in the hands of the people.

Pittsburgh is a union town, and we're proud of it. Labor is at the forefront of the fight against authoritarianism, because we know solidarity is stronger than any dictator. To our union workers this Labor Day and every day–I've always got your back ✊🏾

Bridgeville had big plans to build infrastructure to control flooding, but the Trump admin pulled their funding at the last minute. Folks here in Western PA should never have to worry about a flood destroying their homes or businesses. I'm proud to work with local leaders like

Trump's so-called Big Beautiful Bill is going to rip away healthcare and SNAP from millions of seniors while forcing them to pay more for everything from groceries to medication. It's cruel. I joined @RepLPowell and Lawrenceville seniors to discuss how this budget may impact

The passion & skill of young people in Western Pennsylvania is inspiring. I got to see it firsthand at the Weld for Community Summer Bootcamp. We have to keep investing in workforce development programs supporting our youth with the experiences they need to succeed.

The trades and vocational training programs at places like The Trade Institute of Pittsburgh are essential to helping folks develop the skills they need to build careers. Proud to have helped secure $450,000 for their new transitional jobs program.

I went to Moshannon Valley ICE Detention Center to conduct oversight and was shut out. We will not be intimidated and we will not be silent. Congress should pass my Congressional Oversight Access Act to protect lawmakers from violence and retaliation for doing our jobs.

Donald Trump and his admin are carrying out an all-out assault on working people and trying to pit us against each other so we blame everyone but the billionaires. We will not let them take our power away.

I am sick and heartbroken hearing about the horrific shooting at Annunciation Catholic. Gun violence is a policy choice. Everyone, especially our kids, deserves to go to school, to worship, to the grocery or the movies, without fear of senseless & preventable violence.
